Smart watches. What are you using?

[Bub]

I only posted in this section because of Fitbit and Garmin being so fitness based. Please move if needed.

Anywho I have a Garmin Vivomove I been using for a while now, I'm not very fitness orientated but the step counter and activity meter did a fair job of shaming me to get up from my desk regularly. However I would like to upgrade and I'm curious to see what everyone's using and what they think.
Current front runner is the Ticwatch Pro. I like a watch to be a watch in appearance and the reviews seem good.

Can't wait to hear [MENTION=73]tinfoilhat[/MENTION] tell me they all suck and Bigfoot is watching me

I have a garmin vivoactive3. Small, cheap and does everything I need. HR and gps were my main things, and battery life.

Literally just got a 44mm Apple Watch Series 4 yesterday.


So far I like it, I started at the gym this week and all their new equipment has a link that you can sync the treadmill with the apple watch, worked seamlessly. I usually go with Apple stuff anyway, but seeing that the cardio equipment syncs with it was the icing on top.

I have the Fitbit Ionic. I love the Fitbit because all of my friends have it and we do workweek challenges every week. It really does make you get off your ass and do something so you can beat everyone else. I also love that you can use it to pay for stuff, so I never carry anything with me when I go to the store, just take the watch.

Battery life is also super awesome, lasts all week for me with the HR monitor on. I also use it as a stop watch when I workout every morning, so that probably eats up a bunch of battery, so it could last longer.

I don't have anything fancy, just a Samsung Gear S2.

I have one of the Fitbit's from like 3-4 years ago. Havent worn it in over a year.
Looking for something non Apple that has newer tech

 

[Bruce Jibboo]

Check out that garmin 5x, sensors seem far superior to apple and the battery seems to last 5-7 days. I rocked a Fitbit charge HR2 for years until something with horsepower yet fashionable showed up.
[MENTION=340]Eagle[/MENTION] likes it too

It's looks and sounds awesome, just a little pricey for what I'm looking for. I would probably never use the nav or half the other features. Looking for something more fitness based without all the other stuff

Yeah that Garmin looks bad ass as hell but I'm not sure I'm in for a $700 watch

I enjoyed using my Gear 2 (VZW CDMA Version) that I got free with my Galaxy S7 but upgraded to the S3 Frontier just this past summer.

I don't use the fitness capablities on it though as I still wear a Fitbit Charge 2 on my other arm... I get incentives at work just for wearing it every day and those incentives already got me a Thinkware F800 Dashcam for free...

I wanted the G2 that came with the purchase of the phone, but all they had left were the crappy Oculus deals. I've used it like twice.

 

[Mook]

I want one but ive got tiny girl wrists and most watches look horrible on me.

 

[boostedguy05]

i got the wife a fitbit Alta for Christmas. she likes it a lot, mostly due to the app features on her phone.

this was her first fitness watch, so she really had no other platform to compare it to.

Apple watch series 4. I just upgraded from a fitbit Blaze and I like everything but the sleep tracking. It's not built in and you need to install an app to track it. I think I found one that is working well and tracks my sleep properly.

As much as I like the traditional watch look from say Fossil or TicWatch it does seem Fitbit has the best all around.

I pretty much only charge my fitbit when I shower and never run out of juice.

You taking 2hr showers? My old Fitbit wouldnt charge that fast

It doesn't fully charge, but 20 minutes a day seems to keep it up... I don't keep my display on all the time. It inevitablely gets a long charge at some point during the week when I wear a fancy watch somewhere.

Watch is stupid. Phone is smart.

Not huge, can find much cheaper than that.

Current front runner for me is FitBit Ionic and Fossil Explorist Gen 4. I'm awaiting [MENTION=19]Yaj Yak[/MENTION] to do my research for me. (But I think it'll be the Fossil cuz it looks like a regular watch)
